haha awesome. it was certainly odd to see! I was like, hey the Cubs have a guy with the same name as my pitcher.... and then I looked a bit closer, and it was my pitcher!!
In the 8th, I put my 2nd to last man in the bullpen in to pitch. I was down by 2, and I figured, if I tie it up, I can go to my stopper, who was fully rested, and he could go a good 3-4 innings if necessary. In the top of the 9th was when the other team used him to pinch hit. Once I figured out what happened and that I wouldn't be able to use him in the game, I kind of panicked. hahaha. So, bottom of the 9th, I'm thinking, well, we can do anything but tie it. If we tie it, I've got nobody to pitch. So my cleanup hitter hits a 3 run homer, and we win the game, ending a 5 game losing streak. So no harm no foul, except in my pitcher's batting record, he will always have one at-bat for a team he was never a part of. I can live with that.
